Noticed the "Short Journey" bit on 4's & X12's and probably everything else has become "PART ROUTE"

Looks weird.
I've yet to see this 'part route' display. Having said that, this particular wording sounds like it takes after a particular Scottish operator. ???

Wait, haven't I seen that livery before? :P All jokes aside, the resemblance does seem a little uncanny, wouldn't anyone reckon?

As much as people may disagree with me, I've always preferred the "E" suffix to "Short Journey", "Part Route" etc.

No one takes any notice of them however it is put on the LEDs. The amount I've had to kick people off on the afternoon X14 to Spring Lane (which is funny as we don't actually have a Spring Lane destination on the hannovers) and X4 to Sutton

I do also prefer the E suffix as it is more visible if you actually pay attention to the LEDs

I don't doubt that they did check before putting one on there.
